German players and Brooks Koepka’s comeback create excitement at Torrey Pines for the PGA Tour opener. Find out the tee times here.
When the first tee times are announced at the Farmers Insurance Open, attention once again turns to Torrey Pines – one of the most iconic venues on the PGA Tour. The challenging South Course features long par-4s, narrow fairways, and notorious greens, making it a true test, while the slightly shorter North Course appears more scorable but remains no pushover. This combination ensures a high-caliber field and early sporting excitement every year.
From a German perspective, the tournament start is particularly interesting: Stephan Jäger, Thomas Rosenmüller, Matti Schmid, and Jeremy Paul are all set to compete. Jäger and Rosenmüller have opportunities for an aggressive start on the North Course, while Schmid faces strong international competition on the South Course.
Brooks Koepka’s Comeback on the PGA Tour
Another major focus is Brooks Koepka’s comeback to the PGA Tour. The multiple major winner tees off on the South Course alongside Ludvig Åberg and Max Homa – a group likely to draw early tournament and fan attention. Koepka’s return adds extra star power to an already stellar field, making the Farmers Insurance Open even more exciting. The tournament will be broadcast on MagentaTV Thursday and Friday from 6:00 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 5:00 p.m. CET.
